Nowadays, regarding the international importance of minorities, this is a global issue and a problem for many of the states. Iran is of different religious, ethnic and linguistic minorities. These minorities looked for their legal, political, social and cultural receivables. This survey is going to show that religious minorities in the Islamic Republic of Iran have attained most of the equal rights with Muslim Iranians via the constitution and the verdicts of jurists, during the last three decades, although, considering some legal restrictions and different views, it is a long way to the substantiation of equal rights with Muslims. During the recent period, this issue is emphasized and taken into consideration by legal institutions and related organizations and the minorities in the Islamic Republic of Iran have an optimum position regarding their legal rights compared to the many of the other countries.
